Mrs. Pierce’s 8 th grade World History students hosted a “Night at the Museum” on February 28, 2013.
Parents, friends, and family were invited to take a tour through the hallways of BMS as historical
characters came to life. Parents listened intently as King Tut, Moses, Aristotle, Caesar, and many, many
more told how they made an important impact on history. An anticipated 125 parents were expected, but
after final numbers were counted, over 200 parents, friends, and community members came through the
tour! It was a fun night of learning for all involved.
